Tue, 19 Apr 2011 00:57:44 +0000https://www.toryhoke.com/wp/?p=3117Hello. Are you using Maya 2011? Did you customize pv_performAction.mel in Maya 2009, and now your customization is not getting called? Don’t worry. What you want to do is override FileMenu.mel. That’s the new save action hook.

Fri, 06 Aug 2010 07:03:36 +0000https://www.toryhoke.com/wp/2010/08/06/blue-shield-the-reckoning/I called their customer service number, reached a human, and he got to the bottom of the problem, bing-bang-boom. I should be getting the final refund as a check within the next week. Maybe I shoulda just tried their standard customer service phone number a month ago. OH WELL. Writing letters is fun.

Mon, 23 Nov 2009 20:49:10 +0000https://www.toryhoke.com/wp/2009/11/23/maslows-hierarchy-of-needs-redux/I think I finally get what I didn’t get before. This is why rich cultures are more progressive than broke cultures, right? Not because of religion or habit or liking freedom, but just because it is rich enough? I’m reading The Predictioneer’s Game and it is asploding my brain. More to come.
